  "What's this fifth type of life form?" Zhao Shichang couldn't help but interrupt, Kou Xiaowei's words were really hard for him to understand.

  Kou Xiao Wei said slowly: "I don't know how to explain it either. For example, plants are 'first-class life forms', humans and other animals belong to 'third-class life forms', and there is a 'second-class life form' between plants and animals. And the black flame in front of us is a 'fifth-class life form'. Does everyone understand now?"

  Su Yu hummed in agreement, although it was hard to understand what this so-called "fifth class of life form" was like. He could barely accept Kou Xiao's explanation, which roughly meant that the black flame was also a living being, just existing in a different form from the animals and plants they knew before, but still truly possessing its own life.

  Just like that "Earth Mother", it's the "second class of life" between animals and plants that Kou Xiao Wei mentioned.

  "Xiao Wei, and then, I mean, this fifth form of life that we're talking about, how does this black flame help us leave this world?"

  Su Yu thought for a moment, muttering to herself as her eyes stared fixedly at the raging black flames in front of her, feeling the astonishing life energy within them. She could vaguely sense that this was indeed another kind of life form, one that transcended their understanding and was completely different from the animals and plants they knew.

  Kou Xiao Wei thought for a moment, seemingly thinking about how to explain. At this moment, everyone was either staring at the black flames in front of them or at Kou Xiao Wei. Everyone knew that Kou Xiao Wei was not simple at all. Although her strength seemed to be only that of a zeroth-tier weakling, her knowledge and understanding of this world had reached an astonishing level. Who exactly was she? Was she like everyone else, coming from the Heavenly Pit to this world? Or... was she originally a person from this world? Of course, the premise was that this strange world originally had humans living in it.

  Kou Xiaoyi thought for a moment before saying, "These are all things my dad told me. This 'fifth class of life forms' can form a special spiritual contract with humans, animals or other types of life. This 'fifth class of life forms' is very special, they need a symbiotic body to grow...or rather, to come alive and have real life. Otherwise, their existence is no different from that of objects, and it cannot be said that they truly possess life."

  This remark was very profound, and Su Yu and the others were confused. Lei Rui couldn't help but say: "What does 'birth companion' mean? Can you make a spiritual contract with humans, Xiao Wei, can you explain it more clearly?"

  "I don't know how to say it, but basically, this 'fifth-class life form' can grow and evolve with other lives, becoming stronger and more powerful. Eventually, when it's fully matured, it can make the other lives that grew with it equally strong and even grant them eternal life. And... at that time, using this matured 'fifth-class life form', we can travel through this world to any place we want to go. Su Ge, just like what Dad said, when the time comes, we can ride on it and leave this world, returning to any world we want to go back to."

  Su Yu and others were stunned, speechless for a long time.

  After a while, Su Yu said: "Xiao Wei, does that mean we have to help this black flame... no, this fifth-class life form grow up and mature, then ride it... can leave this world?"

  "Yes, that's right. Su Da Ge finally understood." Kou Xiao Wei became excited and said: "Actually, there are not many such fifth-class life forms in this world, but they have all been occupied by others. Everyone wants to use it to gain more powerful power and get more rights. This is a rare thing, my father also got it back then, so I'm clear about it."

  "Did Father also get it? Where is he now?"

  Kou Xiao Wei fell silent again, and after a while, she shook her head and said: "He's not here anymore... He's really gone..." Her expression turned gloomy, and she had always mentioned her father with pride. At this moment, when she said he was no longer there, the look on her small face was despondent and heartbreaking to see.

  Kou Xiao Wei may be small, but she has an endless mind.

  Although Kou Xiao Wei's words were not very clear, everyone managed to understand some of it. However, what she said about the fifth form of life, spiritual contracts, and accompanying growth was too unbelievable, leaving Su Ye and others half-believing and half-doubting. At this point, everyone's only thought was to leave the forest, leave this world, and return to their own familiar world. As for Kou Xiao Wei's so-called fifth form of life, which supposedly helped it mature and traverse worlds, it sounded too vague and elusive.

  Su Yu thought for a moment and said, "Xiao Wei, since you know so much, I'd like to ask a few questions. What's going on with this forest? And what are the ways to leave this forest or this world besides the fifth-class life form you just mentioned?"

  Kou Xiao Wei's gloomy expression slightly alleviated as Su Yu mentioned other issues, shaking her head: "Actually, I don't know what's going on with this forest either. Since I was old enough to understand things, the forest has always been like this. Not even my dad has walked through it completely... Dad said that in this world, no one can walk through this forest, unless they're from the legendary 'Golden Tribe'... So, Su Ge, searching for an exit from the forest is fundamentally impossible. The only method is what I just said: relying on the power of these fifth-class life forms."

  Su Yu and others heard this, looked at each other in dismay, Fang Jiong suddenly said: "Although I dislike children, but...I believe what she says."

  He has known Kou Xiaowei for some time, and he knows that Kou Xiaowei won't speak nonsense. Moreover, the things she said aren't something a little kid can make up out of thin air. In other words, what Kou Xiaowei said should be basically true.

  Qin Jiagui took out the map and muttered, "So the place indicated on this map is actually where the 'Fifth Type of Life Form' is located?" Suddenly, he was shocked to find that a part of the map had become blurry, and all the indications had disappeared.

  "This map... Fifth-class life form..." Qin Jiawei muttered to himself, sensing the fluctuations in the life energy within the black flames before his eyes. At this moment, he lost all sense of direction, and didn't know what to do next. For a while, he was at a loss for what to do."

  Others had similar thoughts to Qin Jia Gui, originally everyone thought that the place marked on the map was the exit, this belief supported them, now they finally arrived at their destination, but it turned out to be such a result, Kou Xiao Wei's words were true or false, people could only half believe and half doubt, her sentence "the forest is endless" made people's hearts cool down by half, instinctively unwilling to believe in this absurd fact.

  Finally, almost everyone's attention was focused on Su Yu, waiting for his decision.

  Su Yu also furrowed her brow and fell silent.

  "Suyu, what do you think? What should we do next? Should we just pick a place and keep going?" Ma Ziyue couldn't help but ask. In fact, after walking through this forest for so many days, everyone was physically and mentally exhausted. Li Dong heard Ma Ziyue's words and was the first to say in a low tone: "We can't go on... We really can't move anymore. It looks like we have no hope..."

  Li Dong had changed a lot since the incident at the hospital, and he was now very quiet and taciturn. At this moment, when he suddenly spoke up, everyone vaguely felt that his voice seemed to have become sharper and somewhat strange.

  Su Yu listened to Ma Zi Ye's inquiry, pondered for a moment, lifted his head, and saw Ma Zi Ye looking at him. He also saw Su Yu, Zhang Zhong Mou, and everyone else staring at him. Suddenly, he felt a bit annoyed, but his heart calmed down. He turned to face Kou Xiao Wei and asked: "Xiao Wei, what's this about the Heart Spirit Contract and Companion Growth? How do we proceed?"

  "What is meant by a spiritual contract is a program of recognition, which can make this fifth-class life recognize its master, and then they can grow up together. The process is very simple, that is, to get the recognition of this fifth-class life. However, the first person who performs the spiritual contract will be in great danger, while the people behind will find it much easier."

  Su Yu took a deep breath, looking at the helpless and bewildered eyes of the crowd, thinking of Ning Xuan who was still in need of his help in this forest. In that instant, he steadied his mind and made a certain decision, saying in a low voice: "Xiao Wei, how can we get its recognition?"

  "Walk into the flames, as long as Su Da Ge's will is strong enough, after passing its test, you can form a spiritual contract with it."

  Su Yu nodded and walked into the raging black flames without any hesitation.

  Ma Ziyue hastily said: "Su Yu, wait." Then looking at Kou Xiaowei, she asked: "What if we fail? What will happen then?"

  Kou Xiaoyi said: "If we fail, we will be swallowed by this fifth-class life form and die."

  Ma Ziyue was shocked and exclaimed: "Su Yu,......"

  He wanted to say more, but before he could, Su Yu turned around and gave everyone a dazzling smile. Without any hesitation due to the terrible consequences, she stepped forward and walked in.

  The others looked at each other, and Zhang Zhongmou, Su Yu, etc. couldn't help but walk up front.

  “Su Yu——” Su Yu called out, but saw that Su Yu's figure had already disappeared into the black flames. At the same moment, the flames suddenly roared to life and shot up into the sky, and in an instant, a terrifying power pressed down on everyone, forcing them to retreat. The crowd felt a fearful energy fluctuation that wouldn't stop, and they couldn't even get close.
